Gamera is a giant monster, or kaiju, that appeared in a dozen Japanese films. Intended to compete with Godzilla, Gamera has become a Japanese icon in his own right…

This video ranks the strongest of the kaiju to appear in the world’s longest running film series, including favorites Mothra, Rodan, King Kong, and many more.

1933’s King Kong is known for its groundbreaking special effects—including stop-motion animation, matte painting, rear projection and miniatures—all done decades before CGI. 

These giant monsters sometimes save (sometimes destroy) cities. They also fought a lot of OTHER things. Can you match which monster fought what?

Celebrating Toho's legendary kaiju, plus Godzilla’s enemies (like King Ghidorah and Mechagodzilla) and Godzilla’s allies (like Kong, Mothra, and Rodan).

Mothra made her film debut in 1961's Mothra. One of Toho’s most popular monsters, Mothra is second only to Godzilla in her total number of film appearances.

Starting with his first appearance in 1954, music has been a big part of the Godzilla experience. This post includes various pieces of music written for or in tribute of the King of the Monsters.
